Hey guys writing from the dealership. Car needs new rear struts urgently. 2006 m45 sport.

are KYB GR2's good enough to fit the bill? I see they're one of the cheapest options. I guess there's not much else for us?

Crap it doesn't appear KYB even makes shocks for sport models?

Does anyone know what the difference is between base & Sport shocks (other than perhaps stiffness)??? I hope the mounting locations are all the same. I don't want another J30 where the front shocks are $500 a piece...

My first Infiniti was a j30 replaced all struts cost around $279/ea..sucks!!.. I've been reading the threads on replacement struts and kyb in particular. Seems the only difference is the stiffness! The fitment should not be an issue!!
